I made some guesses as to a likely marching order and posted it in the campaign tab (and here). Let me know what changes (if any) you would prefer.
I had intended for Ty to be the front man. He's tied for the highest AC and he has the highest hit points. I'm sort of designing him to be the guy people want to use for flank bonuses.
Also, my initiative looks good, and I see I didn't include it in my character sheet, which I'll go do right now.

Right. I misread him as using a longspear, thus being a reach fighter. I'll let you and Alexis fight it out. Someone should be rear guard, also.
The longspear is Arqueros' favored weapon, actually. But I like my pbp characters to be fairly straightforward.
Initiative looks right.
I'm fine hanging in back for the march, but once we get into the dungeon I'd prefer to be a bit closer to the action.
Color spray has a very short range, and my movement per round is only 20 ft. Admittedly, for now I'll need to spend mythic power to cast color spray (inspired spell lets you cast mystery spells, as long as they're of a level I can cast, even if I can't cast color spray from my spell slots yet).
Thoughts from my fellow party members?
In normal marching order without combat, unless she is leading she will stay in the back. So the current one is fine since the foreigner is picking the location. Prepare for the horror!
In a combat setting currently she would probably still stay in the back. As she grows more confident in her skills and get to know the skill set of the party this will change. Is that alright?
That makes sense to me. How about this for combat marching order, for now?
Feel free to adjust, now or in the future.
Single-file:
Ty
Daniel
Joneth
Thanephos
Athar
Alexis
Double:
Daniel-Ty
Joneth-Athar
Alexis-Thanephos
I am fine, she can always move forward if need be but the back is good.
Daniel would rather stay in the middle. Hard to shoot up close :p
Gah, sorry. I forgot Daniel is an archer. Switch him and Jonerh, then.
Just in case folks were wondering, that was me trying to fold plot in along with the RP-opportunity some folks were looking for. :) No matter, though.
What questions did you want posed to Tolion?
Bah a late night a work is my excuse. We can still do the dinner RP, especially if you put a mysterious bald man there. Clearly we got distracted with the marching order. Gming is like trying to herd cats and you brave Sir are doing it long distance :)
As to the questions.
What evil has corrupted the Starstone?
How do we cleanse the Cloak?
Is that man truly Aroden or an imposter?
What was done to us?
What did the vision mean?
42. The answer is always and to all 42.
Good answer! oh another question would be where can I find my towel?
Tsk, tsk, Daniel.
You gotta work a bit more for THAT info. Nice try, though...
Twas worth a shot.
Not sure how to phrase it but why should we trust that this new God is tainted/evil? How can we learn that it is true? How do we know we know that any other mortal that has ascended to divinity are not in someway touched by this evil?
Nothing your characters have learned so far has indicated that the new god is tainted, evil, or in any way affected by this ancient evil.
Also, keep in mind, this is a speak with dead spell. You are speaking to Tolion's spirit, and accessing the knowledge he gained from a powerful vision moments before his death. This is not a commune spell, after all.
It is implied as such from the temple being corrupted by something. And is there a way to verify what he has claimed?

True, it is a very strong possibility (meta-knowledge aside). As for verifying his claims, see my edited post above, reminding you about the limits on this particular divination.
I know and understand. That is why I proposed this to the group. She is wanting to ask him since currently asking the Gods is pout of her abilities. I wait opinions from the group as I will be leaving for work in about half an hour.
Ty didn't actually ask Tolion's coorpse his question. He phrased it as a statement and addressed it to the group like he saw Daniel just do when Daniel asked if anyone else had any questions

Fair enough. Two questions, then.
Thanks.
Something IC Daniel really wants to know is if aroden has returned, in some way or form. So if no one has any better questions that will be one of mine
I'm not sure if this is a good question, but what about, What caused you to die when Masoumi ascended?
We were told old age. But eh.
How about seeing if the old man knew anyone/ anything that could aid us in getting in the darn place. Surely his wisdom and knowledge isn't all gone :P
so the CLW is 1d8+? so I can mark it. And woot she had to give the Teifling holy water and nothing hinky happened.
1d8+1
Tieflings are native outsiders and not inherently evil. I think Alexis could bathe in the stuff with no ill effects.
I meant is mockingly since she hissed at Alexis.
Oh! Sorry! Chalk one up to the toneless environment of online forums.
I know. Sarcasm is my true way of speech and the written word simply doesn't let me express it the way it deserves
So do we as a group want to still do the RP for the dinner, move on with the traveling and chat it up then, or skip the RP ad move on to plot. I like the first to and only if others want the last option will I go that route.
Why don't we do the dinner in spoilers, and advance to the plot out of spoilers?
I am fine with that I just wanted to know what everybody wanted to do?
I'm good either way. I think rp can happen naturally as the party heads out to accomplish a goal, but I don't have a problem with the PCs going to dinner together.
Hello?
I am here
I was zzzzzzzzz and work
Sorry, I was waiting for everyone to figure out the dinner thing, and then I forgot to respond to the knight.
Let's just skip the dinner thing, and focus on building momentum.
Sadness :(
I don't object to the lunch RP, it just seemed we were losing focus entirely. If you wish, feel free to get the ball rolling. :)
Kinda unsure what he is asking. He asking what the knights can do?
I think that he's asking why these knights are so impressive. Daniel mentioned seeing what they could do.
That's exactly what I was asking.
Here, still! I'm alive! Apologies, it was a busy weekend. I'll get to posting ASAP.
welcome back
hello?
